Saving Small for game 3 is our best shot to win the regional..... But.... Conventional wisdom says you gotta throw your best available facing an elimination game. It would suck to go home without your best starter ever touching the field.

Did you watch the game today. We ain?t winning this regional
Got to start small. Samford isn't gonna be shitbags.
Pitch Small. You win the game at hand and worry about the next one when it comes.
At this point it likely doesn’t matter.
Put Billingsley out there on a short leash
I would definitely go Billingsley.
Off topic, but AU saved Mize today and won 13-4 in a 2 vs 3.
We threw our 2 today too.Quote:

Didn't think so. Save Small until Sunday.
Is this your first year to follow the NCAA Tournament or something?Quote:

I feel like we've already embarrassed ourselves today, so going 2 and out isn't really a big deal at this point. Might as well roll the dice and pitch Billingsley.
Who cares.....
rough attitude. I thought you were the positive police.Quote:

We have at least a prayer to beat everyone else if we could get FSU and eliminate them. Everyone will be out of pitching by Sunday anyways, and we don't have any pitching to begin with. Seems like that would be right up our alley
Who do we have left to pitch tomorrow that we trust with JB? France and Neff are out for tomorrow according to Gary and the Henderson’s. JB would have to give us six solid innings tomorrow (at least). If we pitch JB tomorrow it’s 2 and Que. We need France/Neff to pair with JB to even have a chance with him.
I don?t understand the question. What part of watching every pitcher we had today, save Small and Self, get shelled for the most part. We may win a game, maybe even two, and I guess miracles happen, but nothing about today gives any indication we have a shot at winning this tourney.Quote:

And this was said before tonight?s game started. Just pointing that out. Correct answer.Quote:

I really hope this happens actually because we're more likely to beat FSU once with Small than twice with wtf knows

He's that bad.Quote:

Good news is that FSU is top 10. We seem to play our best against top 10
Yep. It says a lot about a pitcher when he's trotting in from the bullpen and a collective "F**K" is said throughout the fan base. The kid just isn't good, and it's Henderson's fault for putting him out there to let him fail time after time.Quote:
